Rome, The Eternal City

Rome is home to the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, the Fontana di trevi, the Vatican, over 900 Baroque- and Renaissance-era churches, and innumerable antiques. Maybe it is because of this that we have the saying “Rome wasn’t built in a day”. In addition to being Italy’s capital, Rome was the centre of the Western world’s arts and culture for centuries and is now a living museum.

Sightseeing

It’s not easy to visit every landmark in Rome, so it’s essential to plan your trip well. Every inch of this city seems to capture a moment of history, which competes for your time. Start your first landmark with understanding how prosperous Rome was at Palatine Hill. Then go to the Colosseum, the world’s largest amphitheatre, close by is the Roman Forum which was the centre of Roman life for centuries. End your day with a visit to Fontana di Trevi. The day after, visit the Vatican City to get a feel of The Basilica of St.Peter’s grandeur and then immerse yourself in the beauty of Renaissance arts at the Vatican Museum. Another interesting place is Basilica of Santa Maria Cathedral at Trastevere.To end your trip, walk along Tiber River and choose amongst the many dotted restaurants.
